Example Mediation Scenarios
Mediation is a quick, cheap option for negotiating monetary settlements; however, the usefulness of mediation generally grows with a problem's distance from money.
Difficult, complex, and emotional issues are well within a mediator’s wheelhouse.
Mediation may be a good choice in emotionally-triggering situations like these:
- Commercial disputes
- Divorce cases
- Contract negotiations
- Parent planning
- Business dissolution
- Property disputes
- Landlord and tenant disputes
- Neighborhood conflicts
- Workplace conflicts
- Condominium association disputes
- Contract issues
- Employment disputes
- Government public outreach
- Insurance disputes
- Nursing home concerns
- Personal injury
- Trusts and estates
- Communication conflicts
